The "Crowne Plaza Orlando - Downtown" is probably the best choice.<br>

It's about two blocks further away than the Marriott Courtyard, but
it's considerably closer than the Travelodge. Hotels.com says it's
available at $93/night, and that the Marriott Courtyard is $161.<br>

<div>Uri, and any one else who is trying. There are / were 10
rooms available at the Marriott Courtyard on Magnolia which is
the closest hotel to the doubletree. They are $125/night and
under YAPC Conference I believe.</div>

book a hotel in Orlando FL, one of the biggest US tourist
destinations, in the summer vacation season. You're not
going to find anything cheap.

<div>Hotels will be operating near capacity. That's why the

You could start at<br>
<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://www.booking.com/hotel/us/doubletree-by-hilton-orlando-downtown.html">https://www.booking.com/hotel/us/doubletree-by-hilton-orlando-downtown.html</a><br>
click on the map, and find out which hotels are
available nearby.<br>
If you first enter a checkin and checkout date, it will
even tell you<br>
for which price it has rooms available.<br>
